Chelsea have already shown interest in signing Alejandro Garnacho, less than a year after signing him from Manchester United. The Argentine winger completed a £40m move to Stamford Bridge last summer but had a disappointing first season.
Although he has scored eight goals in all competitions, only one of which came in the Premier League, manager Liam Rosenior prefers to use ex-Wolves player Pedro Neto on the left.
And it appears the west London club are already delighted with his move. According to The Sun, the club’s leaders are willing to allow Garnacho to leave the club, and Rosenior is hesitant about Garnacho’s place in the team.
The youngster still has six years left on his contract with Chelsea, but has recently been linked with a loan move to Boca Juniors. He recently removed all references to his current employer from his TikTok page.

Meanwhile, Garnacho recently spoke out about his exit from Old Trafford, suggesting he regrets the circumstances of his move.
In an interview with Premier League Productions, he said: “I remember that in the last six months I couldn’t play as much as I used to at Manchester United. I started sitting on the bench, which is not a bad thing. I was only 20 years old, but in my mind I felt like I had to play every game.”
“In my mind, maybe it’s me too, I started doing bad things. But yeah, it’s just this moment in life and sometimes you have to make decisions. I’m really proud to be here with a club like this and still in the Premier League.”

When asked if it hurt to leave, Garnacho added: “Yes, maybe so, because I loved that club, right? They gave me confidence from the beginning in Spain, took me to the academy and then to the first team. So it took about four or five years, but the fans, the stadium, the great love from everyone, everything was really good.”
“Sometimes you have to change for the sake of life or for the next step. I have only fond memories of Man United.”
Chelsea manager Rosenior said of Garnacho earlier this year: “Garna is a top player. Tactically he has changed a bit since I arrived. I wanted to dominate the midfield areas, which meant that sometimes I played only as a winger.”
“But Garna is an outstanding player. What I really liked during this period was his reaction when he didn’t start. He has been practicing very well. He has shown a really positive attitude.”
